Herman Melville - Song Of YoomyHerman Melville - Song Of Yoomy
Work rating: Low


Departed the pride, and the glory of Mardi: The vaunt of her isles sleeps deep in the sea,   That rolls o`er his corse with a hush,   His warriors bend over their spears,   His sisters gaze upward and mourn.     Weep, weep, for Adondo is dead!   The sun has gone down in a shower;   Buried in clouds the face of the moon; Tears stand in the eyes of the starry skies,   And stand in the eyes of the flowers; And streams of tears are the trickling brooks,     Coursing adown the mountains.--   Departed the pride, and the glory of Mardi:   The vaunt of her isles sleeps deep in the sea. Fast falls the small rain on its bosom that     sobs,--   Not showers of rain, but the tears of Oro.
